- Kenneth Lovett

SIX WEEKS into her Democratic primary campaign against Gov. Cuomo, actress Cynthia Nixon is changing campaign managers, the Daily News has learned.

Out is Nicole Aro, 34, a onetime digital strategist for the national AFL-CIO. In will be Hayley Prim, 30, a principal at Hilltop Public Solutions, which has done work for Mayor de Blasio, sources told The News on Tuesday. According to her online bio, Prim was a high-dollar finance director for de Blasio’s 2013 campaign and worked for the mayor at City Hall as a housing and economic policy analyst. Before joining de Blasio’s campaign in 2012, Prim worked for the Democratic Congressio­nal Campaign Committee.

On Monday, The Root reported Nixon (inset) hired Joy Williams to serve as a senior adviser who will focus on such areas as voter outreach, policy, fund-raising and communicat­ions.

Nixon’s camp confirmed the changes.
